Description of the Arezzo vacation villa rental

"Villa Chiana” is positioned inside the ancient city walls of Civitella, a Tuscan hill town dominated by a 13th century castle. The entrance to “Villa Chiana” faces the castle, and the back looks out many miles over the Chiana Valley towards Cortona.

The living room has spectacular views, opening out onto a large stone terrace and flower garden. The ground floor also includes a studio/bedroom, spacious dining area, bathroom, a double living room with fireplace and piano, and a glass enclosed veranda with direct access to the terrace garden, which acts as an additional living/dining room. There are four bedrooms and two bathrooms on the second floor. One of the bedrooms is also set up as a study. All of the bedrooms have comfortable double beds.

The house is fully equipped for elegant family living, including wi-fi, and can accommodate a maximum of eight adults. Many of the furnishings are sturdy 19th-century antiques, and books for all tastes abound. The kitchen is equipped with new appliances, including a dishwasher and washing machine.

Civitella has a lively local life, with two restaurants, hairdressers, a mom and pop grocery store with fresh bread every morning, and antiques shop. Swimming pools, spas, tennis courts and horse back riding are all available nearby.

“Villa Chiana” is an ideal base to experience the essence of Italy, protected from tourist crowds, yet easily accessible to all of the treasures of Tuscany being only a twenty minute drive to Arezzo, forty minutes to Siena, and an hour to Florence. Within a 35 minute drive you can reach Montepulciano, Cortona and wonderful places like the outdoor thermal baths of Rapolano which date to Roman times to discount outlets for Italian fashion.

Villa chiana is simply extraordinary. We were a group of friends and had a great time eating and relaxing on one of the most beautiful terraces I have seen. The paggis are warm and welcoming and will do everything to make sure you have the perfect stay in Italy. We are planning to come back in 2015 with my family.

Amazing Civitella

Had an amazing stay. The views, the patio, the rooms, the house, the village are all amazing. Well-appointed home is large and very comfortable. Was there with a group of friends, and everyone had plenty of private space, and there are many communal spaces. Nothing beats a big meal out in the huge patio with a view of the Tuscan valley as the sun sets. Loved it. Will definitely be back.
